Paperstone – Office life, work and fun

Half your waking life seems to be spent in the office – so it makes sense to utilise the working day to meet a few personal objectives. Here are three suggestions for making the most of spare minutes at your desk to keep your life running efficiently.

Set chores for your kids from your desk, using the free-of-charge Choremonster app (see video below) which makes household jobs into fun.
